It seems that xemacs-21.5-b16 does not suffer from it. It does print error
messages but does not hang.
xemacs-21.5-b16: X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GetWindowAttributes)
Resource id in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 5292
Current serial number in output stream: 5293
